Nutritionist explains how much tangerines are harmful
Tangerines are the citrus fruits that most often appear on tables in winter.
Many people like such aromatic, sweet and very healthy fruits. But it is important to remember about the measure. If you overdo it, the fruits will only harm the body.
Doctor Tatyana Zaletova spoke about this in more detail in an interview with Sputnik radio.
As the doctor explained, tangerines are rich in vitamin C and are an important element of a healthy diet.
But if you overdo it with the fruit, it can lead to an allergic reaction and also put a lot of strain on the excretory system.
In addition, as Zaletova noted, such fruits can irritate the gastric mucosa, which means that gastritis may worsen.
The doctor added that it is safe for health to eat no more than 500 grams of tangerines per day.
However, you should not eat them on an empty stomach or in such quantities at once; the daily norm of the product should be spread out over the entire day.
